Artist: Brian Abbott & Tomasz Krakowiak
Song: [excerpt from first piece]
Recorded at Wenona Lodge (Women From Space Festival – Night 1), March 8, 2019.
Brian Abbott & Tomasz Krakowiak - [excerpt from first piece]The first Women From Space Festival saw four excellent concerts take place over the course of the International Women's Day weekend. Organized by Bea Labikova and Kayla Milmine, the festival felt like a really savvy gathering, always more than the sum of its parts and showcasing the depth of talent in the city's various creative music streams in a women-centred environment.
This first night saw a couple of the festival's quietest sets, including this one, which takes the prize as quietest of all — no surprise for anything entering the subtle sound-world of percussionist Tomasz Krakowiak. Joined by Brian Abbott on microtonal guitar and banjo, as always these small gestures are sometimes lost under my recorder's noise floor, but you can hopefully get a sense of something from this field recording.
[Brian Abbott will be bringing his microtonal guitar back to Wenona Lodge for the next instalment of Jazz and Otherwise Improvised Musics on Tuesday, May 14th.]
